and also, you've misconstrued something in venuzuala as REMOVING free press
chavez is merely doing something to restrict what many non-venuzualen analysts see as a possible revolutionary movement

jsobecky, the law is merely applying to a few news networks
it doesn't even affect the whole press
and turning private assests into government assets ISN'T MARXISM
sure, marxism does involve that
but so does mercantilism
just because it takes PART of marxism, doesn't mean it is marxism
it may simply be democratic socialism

you seem to have a fundamental misunderstanding of marxism have you actually read the works of marx
Originally posted by madnessinmysoul
chavez isn't leading his country towards marxism more of a hybrid between capitalism and socialism
Originally posted by madnessinmysoul
jsobecky, you're applying some ignorant statements
there are actually no documented cases of democratic socialist governments
so how would you know how it works?
